Water-retaining structures

Water-retaining structures

Water-retaining structures

(OP)
What is the North American (US +/or Canadian) code of practice for designing water-retaining concrete structures?

I have ACI 350, but it doesn't go into as much detail on crack control and serviceability requirements as I expected. Can someone steer me in the right direction?
Thanks.

RE: Water-retaining structures

ACI 350 is pretty much state of the art.  The crack control provisions were a little better explained in the 1989 edition, but it's still there in the current revision.  If you can find a copy, take a look at it.  Do you have some particular question?

RE: Water-retaining structures

(OP)
No, I think that answers the question.
Thanks!
